Is a new surge ahead? Or have we beaten this thing?

by Adam Taggart

Global deaths from covid-19 are on the wane. Most countries and states are starting to remove lockdown restrictions. And now we’re starting to see medical claims that the SARS2 virus is losing potency.

Why the economic pain and inequality will lead to greater social unrest

Covid-19 has forced an immediate and permanent transformation of the global status quo, and we are in the early stages of understanding exactly how. But it is becoming clear that the pains involved will not be over quickly and that things will take years to stabilize.

Why are we still being given such poorly-constructed and shoddy results by our science ‘experts’? By this time, we should have a plethora of rigorous, peer-reviewed studies giving us clear, dependable answers we can use to create smart health policy decisions.

Whether or not we as a society can agree on the health risks of covid-19 or whether the national lockdowns it has triggered are worth the resulting economic damage, hopefully we can all agree that the global death toll from the pandemic is tragic.

It’s been a while since Chris and I have been able to squeeze in a real-time conversation with our premium users, so we’re going to hold a 1-hour live “ask anything” Q&A webinar this weekend on Saturday, May 23 at noonET/9amPT.

Why is this event restricted to Peak Prosperity’s premium subscribers? Two main reasons:

One — we expect a number of our answers to be our ‘best guesses’ given the incomplete data available. We don’t feel it appropriate to put that kind of speculation out into the public domain.

And Two — one of the many benefits of premium membership is closer access to the experts on this site.
